Visible crease, Expensive, Good, but not great cameras
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G is a glimmer of hope that foldable phones can be excellent. It isn't the best camera phone around, nor does it charge the fastest - but who cares? It folds and doesn't do anything badly. Everything the Z Fold 2 does, it doe...

a phone and tablet in one, splitscreen apps actually useful, good cover screen, fantastic tablet screen, 5G, great performance, plenty of RAM, good battery life, fast charging, good cameras, headturning design
super expensive, no water or dust resistance, no 5x optical zoom camera, internal screen can be marked more easily than traditional glass, heavy, thick, not all apps support multiwindow
The Galaxy Z Fold 2 is an absolute triumph for Samsung, cementing foldable screen devices as not only a possible novelty but as an actually good, useful device worth buying right now.I am by no means suggesting everyone should run out and buy one – £1,799...

Foldable screen opens new possibilities, Excellent hardware quality, Reassuring hinge and screen durability, Very good triple camera, Top-end specs and core flagship features
Heavy and awkward to use one-handed, Many apps aren't optimized for foldables, Much more expensive than most phones
Yes. People are going to scoff at the Z Fold 2's $2,000 price tag, and rightfully so. But if you're willing to part with that large sum of money for the latest technology, chances are you may also be interested in being an early adopter of foldable phones...

Much bigger front screen, High-end specs and camera
Not waterproof, Pricing puts it out of reach for many
Based on our limited time with the Galaxy Z Fold 2, it appears that Samsung has addressed all the complaints users had with the original Fold. It's still a premium device with a specific target market, but the larger screens and better software make it a...
Abstract: It's been a couple of months since Samsung launched its innovative Galaxy Z Fold 4. The foldable starts at $1,800 a pop -- the same as last year's Galaxy Z Fold 3. This year, however, Samsung will need to persuade people to pony up for its luxe gadgets as...

Innovative foldable form factor, Unmatched multitasking capabilities, Massive 7.6-inch 120Hz display, Solid photo/video quality, Excellent software support
Shockingly expensive, No dust/water resistance, Bulky vs. traditional phone
After almost a month using the Galaxy Z Fold 2, I'm convinced that foldables aren't going to be a fad, which made me consider what I want from the Galaxy Z Fold 3...

Bigger cover display, Flex Mode adds versatility, Improved multitasking, More durable design, Apps make use of tablet mode,
Quite expensive, Relatively heavy, Not water resistant,
(Image credit: Future)The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 is the quintessential example of a company listening to its customers and delivering a wide range of improvements they asked for. At $2,000, this is a phone that's still very much for early adopters, but t...

Almost the perfect device, Cover display is useful, Software optimizations are good enough, The best phone of 2020
$2,000 is a lot of dough, Cameras are good but not the best, The plastic screen protector is awful
If you want the best phone of the year, then look no further than the Galaxy Z Fold 2. Minus an S Pen and just an “okay” camera system, this monster can handle anything and everything. Plus, the foldable display is a dream and you'll be left feeling like...
great, flexible hinge, high-quality build, large screens with narrow bezels, good software customisation, precise GPS module, plenty of power, fast Wi-Fi performance, good memory capacity, balanced speakers, long battery life
the screen is still sensitive, awfully expensive, bulky to carry around in a trouser pocket, throttling under load, average microphones, Dual-SIM connectivity only with an eSIM
